Last update: T_KTI (19.05.2005)

Axiomatization of set theory: Zermelo-Frankel, axioms of Gödel and Bernays

Independent formulas, consistency and equiconsistecy of theories

Models of set theory, model class, extension of transitive model, absolute formulas

Ultrapower, measurable cardinal number, elementary injection, supercompact cardinal number

Generic filter, generic extension of transitive model, boolean names, forcing

Martin axiom, PFA (Proper forcing axiom), Martin's maximum

Examples of forcing: addition of real number, continuum can be arbitrary huge, collapsing of cardinal numbers, Levy's collaps

Suslin hypothesis

Iteration, consistency of Martin axiom
